CONTRA COSTA TIMES – Mar 9 – In dating, women and men have equal rights — but when it comes to popping that first question, it is still a man's world. In a recent Match.com survey of 5K single adults, only 10.8% of women admitted to asking a man out. Men have 20 times more aggression hormones than women do. And men want women who are hard to get because it makes them feel valuable. Some think a woman who asks out a guy comes off as desperate: "Shouldn't she play hard to get?" Certainly, women who prefer the pursuit may face less judgment online, says Whitney Casey, Match.com's Austin, Texas-based relationship expert and author of "The Man Plan: Drive Men Wild — Not Away" (Perigee, 2009).
